Lookin´ for a Leader
To bring our country home
Re-unite the red white and blue
Before it turns to stone
Lookin´ for somebody
Young enough to take it on
Clean up the corruption
And make the country strong
Walkin´ among our people
There´s someone who´s straight and strong
To lead us from desolation
And a broken world gone wrong
Someone walks among us
And I hope he hears the call
And maybe it´s a woman
Or a black man after all
Yeah maybe it´s Obama
But he thinks that he´s too young
Maybe it´s Colin Powell
To right what he´s done wrong
America has a leader
But he´s not in the house
He´s waling here among us
And we´ve got to seek him out
Yeah we´ve got our election
But corruption has a chance
We got to have a clean win
To regain confidence
America is beautiful
But she has an ugly side
We´re lookin´ for a leader
In this country far and wide
We´re lookin´ for a leader
With the great spirit on his side
Someone walks among us
And I hope he hears the call
And maybe it´s a woman
Or a black man after all
To bring our country home
Re-unite the red white and blue
Before it turns to stone
Lookin´ for somebody
Young enough to take it on
Clean up the corruption
And make the country strong
Walkin´ among our people
There´s someone who´s straight and strong
To lead us from desolation
And a broken world gone wrong
Someone walks among us
And I hope he hears the call
And maybe it´s a woman
Or a black man after all
Yeah maybe it´s Obama
But he thinks that he´s too young
Maybe it´s Colin Powell
To right what he´s done wrong
America has a leader
But he´s not in the house
He´s waling here among us
And we´ve got to seek him out
Yeah we´ve got our election
But corruption has a chance
We got to have a clean win
To regain confidence
America is beautiful
But she has an ugly side
We´re lookin´ for a leader
In this country far and wide
We´re lookin´ for a leader
With the great spirit on his side
Someone walks among us
And I hope he hears the call
And maybe it´s a woman
Or a black man after all
